Right, I've got an "American Idol" thingy going on in my school and everyone is singing other songs but none from broadway. I'm a mezzo soprano belter. What song should I sing?

well, if you are singing for an "American Idol" thingy, don't sing a B'way song...

I'm just not one for other songs. I've tried listening to other music and nothing suits my voice. I sang something last year from Les Miz at the American Idol thingy and I won. My prize was two tickets to see Chicago.

Someone to Watch Over Me is a good crossover song.

I don't know about this, but perhaps "and I'm telling you I'm not going" from Dreamgirls... :-/

A Disney Song is always a good medium, for example, you could do Journey to the past from Anastasia, or Reflection from Mulan, they're really poppy, yet still showy. No one will do them, yet they're pretty amazing songs.:)
